Novalis Deux – Passing By Lyrics

Butterflies surround her eyes
Fairies fly
Passing by, passing by
Friendly voices from the trees
Birds in the sky
Passing by, passing by

Down by the riverside
Down by the boats
Passing by, passing by
Dying fish on the hooks
And the bloody knife
The fisherman smiles
The fisherman smiles

And cry, you're crying
And cry, you're crying
And cry, you're crying
And cry, you're crying

Sad absent mind
She walks away
Passing by, passing by
Where have the fairies gone?
No butterflies
Passing by, passing by

She walks away, she's walking home
She walks alone
A day has gone by
This day has gone by
Down by the riverside
Down by the boats
She never passed by
She never passed by

And cry, you're crying
And cry, you're crying
And cry, you're crying
And cry, you're crying
And cry
